Sprint Booster DEAL for 5th Gen 4Runner

OK guys what am I doing wrong? I’m trying to get the clip off of the pedal on the car and I’m squeezing the top of it and rocking it back-and-forth to try to pull it off and it isn’t budging. Do you squeeze the top of it to unlatch it or is there something you pull up? Any tips would be appreciated!

Take a look at the Sprint Booster clip - it'll be the same way. I think you are doing it right, just take your time. Mine was pretty tight, too.
 
Bingo. Thanks. A careful heating of the area with a heat gun, then rocking away from the clip while squeezing. Have it on green 8 and so far so good. Pulled it back to 6 because there were a couple unexpected double downshifts.

The thread title says limited time, it's almost four years later. It's like saying Kohls is having a sale.

I wouldn't think an extended warranty and expedited shipping would be something to criticize, regardless of duration.

Hope the offer stands as we're still waiting on our 4R and may want to add this (before the sale ends).
 
Quick update after a few hundred miles. First, even on green/sport the sprint booster makes a big difference in throttle response. Overall I have found it just makes it feel more "responsive".

I have found myself pulling back the number over time. I started at sport/8 and now I'm at sport/4. I don't love the super hard downshift that comes so easily with the higher settings. sport/4 seems to be a good compromise for me at this point. I may try race/1 or race2 just to play around.

Is there anywhere we can see the actual curves so we can get a better sense for what's going on? How is the curve shape different in race vs sport? Maybe that's considered "IP" but I'd love seeing it if available.

I do what I can to help the community as paying vendor and as a Toyota owner and enthusiast myself. If members keep ordering, I keep the perks going. When are you supposed to get the truck? What year? [MENTION=694542]Tanley[/MENTION]

Just got my SB installed that I ordered from Jason. First impression was DAMN this thing is tiny! The size was perfect to fit in the blank switch slot just to the right of the steering wheel. Install was super easy, with the exception of the OEM throttle cable. That thing sucks and the angle you have to put your body in is awkward to say the least. Just don’t give up! Upon taking an initial spin around the residential block and was initially disappointed. However that changed when going down more commercial streets and I needed to accelerate more. This is where the SB shines. It no longer feels like I’m dragging the whole weight of the vehicle behind me, but the vehicle now feels like it accelerates more like it should. The only recommendation I would make is to mount the SB with Velcro. This will make hiding the module easier when taking to the dealership for any warranty work.

Great review and you hit the nail on the head! Also, you don't have to hook up the controller at all if you don't want to. Once you set it, you can unplug it and it will save the setting in the firmware. But, I like it connected as you have the other features like Pedal Lock and Valet mode!

Ordered a sprint booster from Jason for my 2020. It arrived yesterday and I installed it today. Just came back from a quick drive on the highway so I could really open up the throttle. Glad to see it lives up all I've read on the forums. Still have a big smile on my face. Driving is more enjoyable, now that the throttle doesn't have the factory lag.

Happy to help out. I ordered a bunch more in and anyone ordering should have in about 2 days. I'm keeping the 2nd day air shipping going and I'm the only one doing the 5 year warranty.

Booster Update

Been a while but wanted to update.

Booster still working great and mileage stayed the same. Added a remote start and no electric gremlins or anything ( not that I expected any)

Anyways.. Have ordered a couple things from Jason...and he has been excellent to deal with every time
